Caribbean Premier League

In a final plagued with rain interruptions, Barbados Tridents won the Caribbean Premier League 2014 by a slender margin of eight runs on Duckworth-Lewis, leaving Guyana Amazon Warriors with yet another disappointment at the last hurdle.

Amazon Warriors, who were also finalists last year, were set a target of 153 and needed 56 off 30 balls. However, a rain interruption - the fourth of the game - forced the match to be called off and Amazon Warriors found themselves short of the par score.
